Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War!
What's ahead for Freedom Lovers?
By Chuck Baldwin
January 2, 2001
I use the term Freedom Lovers intentionally. The word "conservative" or even
the word "Christian" is far too vague and indefinite. In today's lexicon,
Bill Clinton is said to personify the term Christian and Colin Powell is
hailed as a conservative. Yet, both men betray the substance of the
accolades heaped upon them. It's to the point that the terms conservative or
liberal seem to share more in common than most care to admit.
Liberals will steal one's freedom in the name of welfare or entitlement
programs, while conservatives will steal one's freedom in the name of law
enforcement or free trade. The result is the same: Americans continue to
lose their liberties.
What Nazism and Communism could not do through acts of war and conquest,
both major political parties in America are doing through acts of congress,
court rulings and executive orders: putting the shackles of bondage on the
American people. And the unfathomable part to the story is the fact that, on
the whole, the America people don't seem to mind.
Of course, there are those who do mind. There are those who yet regard
individual liberty (as described and defined in the Declaration of
Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights) as worth fighting and dying
for. Their lot may not be large, but it is principled and determined. What
does a new century hold in store for them?
Sooner or later, lovers of freedom will have to make the same kinds of
choices that yesterday's lovers of freedom had to make. It appears
inevitable. Neither the Republicans nor the Democrats have the courage or
fortitude to make the hard political decisions necessary to return America
to the founding principles of limited government, states rights, and
individual liberty. (It may be questioned how many of them even understand
those principles?)
Only the rise of a potent and principled third party can avert the hard
decisions to come. And since this seems remote, it would appear that, like
our ancestors, Freedom Lovers would have to choose from the following:
We can choose the option made by our Pilgrim Fathers and relocate. Or, we
can choose the option made by our Revolutionary brothers and separate. The
only other option is to live in subjugation, which to Freedom Lovers is not
an option at all. The unknown factor is how many Freedom Lovers will be left
when it becomes necessary to make the hard choices described above?
A few months ago, a friend of mine (who was recently elected to public
office) gave me a wonderful history book. On the inside cover he wrote, "To
Chuck, A Patriot and Friend. Sometimes I think you were born 200 years too
late." Or, at age 48, maybe 50 years too early.
